Disco Sally. 78 years old, new widow, wandering the streets of NYC aimless. She came upon Studio 54 & showed everyone what it means to have the spirit of someone 24. She married her "Greek God". She wouldn't play the role of sad old widow as was expected of her. She died in 1982. They wouldn't play disco at her funeral. A young spirit isn't for everyone. Unless you're dancing. Dance on Sally, wherever you are. Do a dance for Sally, alone or at a party. Dance on Sally.
Thanks for uploading this! It is very hard to find any information about her, not to mention an interview. I really admire her! Disco Sally wanted to live her last years the way she wanted and didn't care what other people thought about her. She was a true legend! She propably had the best days of her life after when she turned 70. She was reborn at the heighth of the disco era when the Studio 54 was founded and died soon after it was all over and when the Studio 54 was closed.
And 25 year olds looked 40. Like Lauren Hutton back in 79 looked to be 50. In early late 90s she was even hotter. Brooke Shields at 14 looked to be in her 20s. The kid was 6 feet tall already.
I spent an afternoon with Disco Sally and her then boyfriend Gianni in Acapulco. A wonderful afternoon I will always remember. We went to see the cliff divers. She was very lively and funny and full of life.
I was only 7 wish I could had went to original studio 54, I did get to the one at mgm grand in Vegas in 2001 when I was 30 and I got to go into the lobby of 54 3 years ago at least I got close!
Thought she was chewing gum🤣 must have been horrible for her heart at that age!! She seemed soo cool tho! That is my Grandmoms name, sally. RIP DISCO SALLY.😥🙂🎶
Never thought she would have actually been. When I seen her in the movie 54 I thought it was just an added character, but she's actually really real... Cool
This isn’t as peculiar as it seems. Dance halls in her day were HUGE. They were likely bigger and there were likely more of them in the 40s than discos in the 70s.
You was lucky I was only 7 years old in Buffalo NY, but I finally "got into" studio 54 4 years ago I was on w54th and the lobby was open with the original doors!
I wish I could had been young adult in NYC but how was people picked to get into 54? The one in Vegas wasn't original location but I got in no problems, I remember it had old pics of NYC 54 on the walls! Better than nothing
Let’s see she saw WW1, prohibition, the Great Depression, WW2, Korea war, man on the moon, JFK, civil rights and chose to go out partying now that’s Americans greatest generation
That was a piece from a really cheap all-in-one stereo system. My sister had one, 8-track/turntable/radio and attached speakers that had inset lights in a translucent box, and one of those is what she's wearing, likely modified to power with a battery pack. It's wearing her, tbh.

A young spirit isn't for everyone.

Dance on Sally, wherever you are.

Dance on Sally.
No, a relative told her about 54 and asked her to go there with him so she did and after that she got hooked, she did not discover it on her own
Did she really die in studio 54?
@dimitries Unfortunately, no. She passed in the hospital. Mount Sinai.
@@gmar7836That's not what her IMBD says.
@@feralhomunculus I read her bio somewhere else
FINALLY! A disco sally interview. I've been waiting yearssssss for this. Thank you!

I love her accent ! "What's RAwRNG with jeans"
It's funny how 77 year olds back then look like the 90 year olds of today.
And 25 year olds looked 40.
Like Lauren Hutton back in 79 looked to be 50. In early late 90s she was even hotter.
Brooke Shields at 14 looked to be in her 20s. The kid was 6 feet tall already.
yep
@Adam Onyx definitely, been watching on KaldroStream for years myself :)
@Adam Onyx yup, been using KaldroStream for months myself =)
True! And these days they look younger. I dated a 55 year old beauty and she looked 35! And had the stamina of a 25 year old!
I spent an afternoon with Disco Sally and her then boyfriend Gianni in Acapulco. A wonderful afternoon I will always remember. We went to see the cliff divers. She was very lively and funny and full of life.
OMG after all these years here is footage of thee real Disco Sally! Idolized here youthful view on life in 54 as Disco Dottie
I hope to have this lady's spirit and sense of fun when I am her age.
A shining of example living life to the fullest.
When i was 38 and dancing in the Disco, youngsters calling me grandma in a nasty way.
World was nicer back then around the 70s ..💚
Now I realize that the character of Nana Fine's grandmother in the series "The Nanny" was an allusion to this lady!😮
This interview is amazing rest in peace
This is epic! Disco Sally personifies Living Deliberately !
Thank you for uploading this! :)
Disco Sally save us from coronavirus !!!
She lived through the Spanish flu
@@Greencloud8 and polio!
I was about five or six years old during 54s hey day, and will be turning 50 in two weeks (ouch), but this one makes me hopeful.
I remember her at 54 & Xenons . She had energy and was amazing.
Oh Wilkie I wanna talk w you sometime
Really? U seen her back in the day? Awsome
Liar
Really? That’s crazy. What was it like back then?? Did she dance a lot what’s going on break it down
I was only 7 wish I could had went to original studio 54, I did get to the one at mgm grand in Vegas in 2001 when I was 30 and I got to go into the lobby of 54 3 years ago at least I got close!
Lots of interviews and photos of her and her husband John. She was an Atty who enjoyed life. Loved her..
But I want to see her DANCE!!!
Shes got that bottom jaw action going...Disco Sally went hard!!! 😂
I noticed that too. 🤩
Cocaine bump and grind
Sally was called the Pelikan back than!She was the throat of NYC😂
Those who know, know lol
She so coked up. Her jaws flapping to left and right. 😅😅
You know it.
She had the good shit when it was pure👍
Thought she was chewing gum🤣 must have been horrible for her heart at that age!! She seemed soo cool tho! That is my Grandmoms name, sally. RIP DISCO SALLY.😥🙂🎶
sally is a legend!!! xxx its whats lifes about xx
Wow, you could not be more wrong. Life is about finding JESUS CHRIST and it appears that she never did .
@@starlite556 well thats one opinion but you may find not everyone on the planet agrees with you... but i admire your blind faith x
Priceless ❤😂❤😂
Never thought she would have actually been. When I seen her in the movie 54 I thought it was just an added character, but she's actually really real... Cool
Wow, she was so inspirational!!
I cry each time I watch 54 movie her character is awesome
Loved this interview.
Cocaine a helluva drug😃
Dont know about you lot, but I don't think she was adjusting her dentures!
It’s called the cocaine adjust lol
Ah yes… I remember her well! At Studio in my 17th year….
Hi Amy , Me To !
Bless her heart 🥰
This isn’t as peculiar as it seems. Dance halls in her day were HUGE. They were likely bigger and there were likely more of them in the 40s than discos in the 70s.
So fun to see this. One night, she flung her right leg over my 8' 10" crouched self. She was the coolest ❤
I was 5' 10" not Tommy Tune's big brother 😏
You was lucky I was only 7 years old in Buffalo NY, but I finally "got into" studio 54 4 years ago I was on w54th and the lobby was open with the original doors!
@@janettejones3925 How fun for you! The dusty skeleton in the corner was me 😅
I wish I could had been young adult in NYC but how was people picked to get into 54? The one in Vegas wasn't original location but I got in no problems, I remember it had old pics of NYC 54 on the walls! Better than nothing
Man I wonder if that watermark is big enough
I want to be like her!! Enjoying her life while she's here to the fullest, and the hell with tomorrow!
Awesome💜💜💜💜
Let’s see she saw WW1, prohibition, the Great Depression, WW2, Korea war, man on the moon, JFK, civil rights and chose to go out partying now that’s Americans greatest generation
Also the first airplane in 1903.
She mentioned Howard Johnson for dinner, LOL!
There's probably a lot of people that don't even know what HoJo's was. I remember when I was a little kid, going there for family dinners. LOL
Does anybody know the name of the first song at the begining?
Boogie Oogie Oogie by Taste of Honey?
@@GBHArchives sounds like it thanks!
Lol what’s that song u idiot,
LED lights around her neck in 1978?
That was a piece from a really cheap all-in-one stereo system. My sister had one, 8-track/turntable/radio and attached speakers that had inset lights in a translucent box, and one of those is what she's wearing, likely modified to power with a battery pack. It's wearing her, tbh.
LED's have been around a very long time, they just didn't gain main steam use in lighting until the last decade or so.
I dont feel afraid of dying as much as getting old like this lady... REALLY SCARED
At 0:58 seconds, This 77-year-old lady makes Mick Jagger look and sound like a young man.
Is that the "wheres the beef" lady?
I wished I could bring my grandma to the club
when people discovered Disco the Greek Giannis Ouzos was already the first Gìlf Lover
BELLA SALLY!!!!
Born it think in 1918
Born in 1900.
I loved Sally
Definitely a New Yorker with that accent
Beállva mint a gerely.... :D :D
Huhhh. Mona from 54 movie. I wonder if sally really died in studio 54..🤔🤔🤔
A 77 year old shouldn't get that coked up. She sounds like a female Larry king
Estaba bien drogada la Sally jaajajja
If the Greek God was gerontophil - he had the best girlfriend from all geronto boys in history 🤣👌🤗💜❤🖤❤💜
